We present a primal only derivation of Mirror Descent as a "partial" discretization of gradient flow on a Riemannian manifold where the metric tensor is the Hessian of the Mirror Descent potential. We contrast this discretization to Natural…
We show a new, elementary and geometric proof of the classical Alexandrov theorem about the second order differentiability of convex functions. We also show new proofs of recent results about Lusin approximation of convex functions and…
We give a projective proof of the butterfly porism for cyclic quadrilaterals and present a general reversion porism for polygons with an arbitrary number of vertices on a conic. We also investigate projective properties of the porisms.
We prove that any smooth Riemannian manifold of non-negative scalar curvature and with a strictly mean convex and compact boundary component can be (C^2) extended beyond the component to have non-negative scalar curvature and to enjoy…
Adopting the global approach to tangent bundles of order two established in[1], we develop this approach to find new results. We also generalize various results of [3], [4] and [6] to the geometry of tangent bundles of order two.
This work is related to billiards and their applications in geometric optics. It is known that perfectly invisible bodies with mirror surface do not exist. It is natural to search for bodies that are, in a sense, close to invisible. We…
Many examples of nonpositively curved closed manifolds arise as blow-ups of projective hyperplane arrangements. If the hyperplane arrangement is associated to a finite reflection group W, and the blow-up locus is W-invariant, then the…
The disk complex of a surface in a 3-manifold is used to define its {\it topological index}. Surfaces with well-defined topological index are shown to generalize well-known classes, such as incompressible, strongly irreducible, and critical…
The first and second representation theorems for sign-indefinite, not necessarily semi-bounded quadratic forms are revisited. New straightforward proofs of these theorems are given. A number of necessary and sufficient conditions ensuring…
We prove entropy rigidity for finite volume strictly convex projective manifolds in dimensions $\geq 3$, generalizing the work of arXiv:1708.03983 to the finite volume setting. The rigidity theorem uses the techniques of Besson, Courtois,…
Borcea-Voisin threefolds provided some of the first examples of mirror pairs in the Hodge-theoretic sense, but their mirror symmetry at the quantum level have not previously been shown. We prove a Givental-style quantum mirror theorem for…
In 1967, Chillingworth proved that all convex simplicial 3-balls are collapsible. Using the classical notion of tightness, we generalize this to arbitrary manifolds: We show that all tight simplicial 3-manifolds admit some perfect discrete…
We give a complete proof of a propagation theorem of multiplicity-free property from fibers to spaces of global sections for holomorphic vector bundles. The propagation theorem is formalised in three ways, aiming for producing various…
We consider mirror symmetry for Fano manifolds, and describe how one can recover the classification of 3-dimensional Fano manifolds from the study of their mirrors. We sketch a program to classify 4-dimensional Fano manifolds using these…
We display four approximation theorems for manifold-valued mappings. The first one approximates holomorphic embeddings on pseudoconvex domains in $\Bbb C^n$ with holomorphic embeddings with dense images. The second theorem approximates…
We prove completeness of preferential conditional logic with respect to convexity over finite sets of points in the Euclidean plane. A conditional is defined to be true in a finite set of points if all extreme points of the set interpreting…
We provide coordinate-free versions of the classical projection Theorem of Marstrand-Kaufman-Mattila. This allows us to generalize this Theorem to the complex setting; in restriction to complex spheres, we obtain further projection Theorems…
This is the second paper devoted to the numerical version of Signature-inverse Theorem in terms of the underlying joint invariants. Signature Theorem and its Inverse guarantee any application of differential invariant signature curves to…
We study a class of non-smooth asymptotically flat manifolds on which metrics fails to be $C^1$ across a hypersurface $\Sigma$. We first give an approximation scheme to mollify the metric, then we prove that the Positive Mass Theorem still…
We formulate some conjectures about the K-theory of symplectic manifolds and their Fukaya categories, and prove some of them in very special cases.
